Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 602 Private work

While we were drinking porridge, Young Master Dong said, "There is something, just listen to it!"

I said oh, and I knew he must be looking for me for something, and I was still drinking the porridge with my head down.

Dong Dashao said: "That's... Mr. He from Huaxi Electromechanical, let me bring a message. He wants to take the job of the testing center!"

I pursed my lips and said, "Why don't you correct your problem? Why do you always spread the word for others? You say you want money and power, what do you lack? You don't lack anything, why bother?" ? Which family's young master is this Young Master He?"

Dong Dashao blushed and said: "I don't want to, but I really can't afford to offend Young Master He. It's useless to talk about family background, but if you don't offend this kind of person, don't offend me. I'll go back and push you away." That's it."

I grunted and said, "Thank you, this Huaxi Electromechanical has visited people this morning, but they are all dirty tricks. I don't know if they underestimated me, or they overestimated themselves!"

Young Master Dong sighed and said, "You really don't know what Huaxi Electromechanical is for?"

I shook my head.

Dong Dashao explained: "Huaxi Electromechanical is a subsidiary company of Huaxi Group. Huaxi Group started as a pharmaceutical company, focusing on medical equipment and testing equipment. Now it is engaged in electromechanical projects, aerospace projects, and is involved in many fields!"

I groaned and said, "That's not a small job!"

Dong Dashao said exaggeratedly: "It's not small? This kind of enterprise is a real money-making enterprise, one of the top 500 in the country, with more hidden assets than you can imagine. Do you know who Mr. He is?"

I hurriedly shook my head and said, "I don't know, and I don't want to know. Why are you telling me this? Such a big company, why are you staring at my small testing center?"

Dong Dashao waved his hand and said, "How would I know? Huaxi Electromechanical is just dawdling in there, and the projects it receives are also transferred to others. They are all second-generation masters. They have done quite a lot in recent years. Yes, who knows what testing center you care about so much?"

The third person who came to me was Dongfang Miracle, and said to me very formally: "Let me officially re-introduce myself, Vice President of Huaxi Group, this is my business card!"

I took the business card and looked at it and said, "You and that white lotus, which one of you is bigger?"

Dongfang Miraculously asked, "Who?"

I took out Bailianhua's business card and handed it to him. He looked at it and said, "His name is Bai Nianhua, not Bailianhua!"

I smiled and said, "It's all the same, which one of you is older?"

Dongfang Miracle said: "Well, Huaxi Electromechanical, she has the final say, I can't control her, and she can't control me."

I said oh, "I understand, but you don't have any real power! Why are you messing around there again?"

Dongfang Miracle let out a sigh and said, "You don't want me, I can't find another job!"

I rolled my eyes and said, "Yes, yes, you came to see me, needless to say, it is also for the testing center?"

Dongfang Miracle nodded and said: "The superior has issued a death order, whoever can take down this testing center will be promoted to a third rank!"

I fiddled with my fingers and said: "You are the vice president now. If you go up one level, you will be the general manager. If you go up two levels, you will become the vice director. If you go up to the third level, you will become the chairman. What good do I have?"

Dongfang Miracle said helplessly: "Brother Chen, don't make trouble! Seriously, what can we do in Huaxi? Why don't we let us do it?"

I said impatiently: "I didn't say I wouldn't let you do it, I said it all, I can't decide, it's not what I say, it's not our business, it's the association's business, if you have anything to do, go directly to Lin Jiasheng go!"

Dongfang Miracle curled his lips and said: "Can you not look for it? It's useless to look for it. People say it, so you have the final say!"

I scolded: "Lin Jiasheng is really nothing! All right, all right, wait for the other companies to come out with quotations. If your price is the lowest and your work is the best, I will definitely use yours!"

Dongfang Miracle said dissatisfiedly: "Then do I still need to find you?"

I said displeasedly: "I didn't ask you to find me! It's useless to find me after all, but then again, what do you mean? Is it because you don't want to lower the price? Or don't you want to do a good job?"

Dongfang Miracle said with a smile: "None, I guess, the price must not be high, no one wants to make money, they all want to earn fame! If we do well, we are not as professional as others, but we will definitely try our best !"

I snorted and said, "Do your best, Huaxi Electromechanical is just a bag company, and you don't even have a decent electrician! How can you do it well?"

Dongfang Miracle was a little puzzled and said, "Can't it? We have the national second-level construction qualification!"

I sneered and said, "Where can't you buy that stuff? I'll only believe you if you have a first-class level! Let me advise you, you've always been cautious in doing things, and you're also a down-to-earth person. Don't capsize in the gutter! !"

Dongfang Miraculously said with a gloomy expression: "What's the use of being down-to-earth? In the end, no one wants it. I used to think that I was quite capable, but the reality told me that it is not enough to have a good backer." !"

I wondered: "Is your family not good enough?"

Dongfang Miracle sighed and said, "It's far behind! It's not at the same level. Let's put it this way, don't you think that Mr. Dong is very powerful?"

I nodded.

Dongfang Miracle shook his head and said: "You are also a frog at the bottom of the well! When Mr. Dong goes to second- and third-tier cities, or some deputy mayors, the investment promotion office will buy her account, but when she goes to first-tier cities, you can see if they wait to see her." ?Since ancient times, they have been scholars, farmers, businessmen, and merchants will always be ranked last. Besides, there are many types of merchants. I will not talk about those who are not in the mainstream, because they may make money, but they are not high-end, no matter how much money they have. , and it’s not hereditary, and the richest is no more than three generations! Those who enter the stream can at least use money to make money and know how to operate capital! Of course, this is also just entering the stream. Who is the rest of the top? The collusion between the government and the businessman is the businessman who works for the government department, the businessman who works for the people, and the red-top businessman.

Their funds will never run out, their contacts will always be endless, there is nothing they can't do, no business they can't do, as long as they want.

Let me ask you, how much money do you have on hand?[-] million?One billion?It is estimated that if you take out [-] million, you will almost go bankrupt.

And you know, what numbers are their projects?Any directional project is worth tens of billions, and it will pay back profits in 20 or 50 years!Don't care about money at all! "

I asked curiously: "Without interest, what kind of money do they make? They don't care about money, what business are they doing!"

Dongfang Miracle looked at me contemptuously and said: "It's not that there is no need to return the interest, but through capital operation, I have already made money in other projects. I know you don't understand. Let me give you an example. You know why Huaxi will pay attention to me. Is it your testing center?"

I shook my head and replied: "I don't know, I'm also curious, even if all the testing centers across the country do it for you, it won't make much money!"

Dongfang Miracle replied mysteriously: "As long as it is a project subject to repeated orders from the state, it is a standardized project. This project is a classic case, and other projects are naturally easy to do. I entered Huaxi, and I completely understood that some people are born If they do business all their lives, they will never lose money, and they have never had any risk in doing business!"

I groaned and said, "Why do you think that's the case? It's just knowing some inside information, using some inside information, and getting some sweetness. Maybe their sweetness is relatively large, and that's all!"

Dongfang Miracle sighed and said: "That's all you know. Who really owns the monopoly industry? Think about it, how many projects are beyond our reach, and foreign-funded enterprises can't participate at all! These enterprises are It is a consortium and the economic lifeline of the country. When will you make your people the economic lifeline of the country? When will you be able to enter their circle! I advise you, don’t offend them, they can’t afford it !"

I was a little displeased and said: "I didn't intend to offend them, but you don't have to warn me for them. I am the most annoying person to warn me, or there are people like you said who can cover the sky, but I think they should also I am a legal businessman, as long as I act according to the principles, no one can do anything to me!"

Dongfang Miracle was chased away by me, but before leaving, it kept reminding me that it was for my own good.

I really understand, how many people in this world are doing it for my own good?Liu Sheng said it was for my own good before, but in the end, it was not for his own sake.Sun Shengguo said it was for my own good, but what happened in the end?I discovered that when a person wants to achieve a certain goal, but violates his conscience, what should he do?Not only do you have to keep hypnotizing yourself, telling yourself that what you are doing is right, but you also have to warn others that it is for the benefit of others, so that you can make yourself feel better!
In the end, 4 companies were selected for the electromechanical power distribution project of the testing center, and I still included Huaxi Electromechanical, after all, they are also considered powerful companies.

Huaxi Electromechanical is not willing to give up until the Yellow River. I couldn't do my job, so I thought of another way.

Two days before the final announcement of the construction unit, I went home at night, and my dad said to me happily: "A company invited me to be a technical director. Do you think I can go?"

I immediately became vigilant and asked, "Which company?"

My dad took out the job invitation function and said, "Huaxi Electromechanical."

Instead of telling the truth, I asked, "How did they find you? You didn't submit your resume, did you?"

My dad said with a smile: "How old am I, how can I submit a resume! I asked, and they said that they have read my articles and books published in the Ministry of Industry, and know that I am very familiar with the program-controlled system of weak electricity, and I am also very interested in the Hanlin machine I invented before."

I understand that this is what they did to my dad, and they also investigated my dad's history. I have to say that they are quite powerful.

I was a little embarrassed, I didn't know whether I should tell my dad the truth, and I was afraid of hurting his self-esteem, so I was hesitating whether to speak, Yaoyang walked in, and said to my dad with a smile: "The old man is amazing, an expert. The character, someone can reuse it at any time!"

I glared at Yaoyang, Yaoyang didn't seem to see me.

My dad blamed me and said: "What nonsense, although I am a little moved, I hope I can still shine, but I also know my own affairs, let alone when I am old, what I have learned is hundreds of years ago. Can it be used?" Then he looked at me and asked, "I'm asking you for something, it's on my head!?"

I lowered my head in embarrassment, and before answering, Yaoyang said: "Whoever asks you, it's all here. I have invested in a new project, 2 years, 20% return rate, okay? I don't believe it myself!"

I hurriedly asked: "Are you so willing to put down the capital? I'll give you a good project directly!"

Yaoyang poohed and said: "You think well, not because you gave me a good project, but because you messed me up. However, I still have to thank him!"

I groaned and said, "What do you say?"

Yaoyang curled his lips and said: "I was told that this project is a scam, and I just put the powerful relationship in the middle, and I immediately understood that the person who lied to me even refunded the deposit I invested earlier. When I came back, I was compensated, you said I have to thank others, I don’t get paid for nothing, but I’m not stupid, I thought there must be something wrong, as expected, just like the old man!"

My dad said a little angrily: "Even I will not let you go, this is too much, Xiaofei, since they put so much thought into it, it means that it must not be easy to ask you, don't promise others because of us." , made a mistake!"

I nodded in relief, and Yaoyang asked: "Is it about the testing center? Recently, everyone who does business will talk about this topic, making a lot of noise, as if anyone who has anything to do with this project will be very happy You have face!"

I sighed and said: "I don't know which sand sculpture, insisting that our testing center is a standardization center, a national key testing project, so that everyone wants to participate now, I am too busy, I didn't take it seriously at the time I agreed casually, who knew that so many things would happen, and now I am riding a tiger! I don’t know how many people I have offended this time!"

Grandpa Sun came over at some point, and said behind me: "Being a man and doing things worthy of one's conscience, you are not afraid of meeting ghosts while walking, and what are you afraid of offending people? But just ask for a clear conscience!

Look at me in 87, how many people wanted to join the party through the back door, I blocked them one by one, for no other reason, I had to be worthy of my party constitution, and ah, in 90, how much did I go abroad for inspections? People came to me, but I blocked them all, and I had to strictly follow the organization's regulations, review them one by one, and..."

Yao Yang stopped at the side and said: "Okay, okay, the old man still remembers the matter of the old rotten millet so clearly, go, tell me, I love to listen, let the two of them talk about something serious!"

My dad wasn't too disappointed, he just said flatly: "I'm so happy! But that's good, at least someone still remembers me!"
